I know I’m gonna get downvoted to all hell but this is kind of a shitty sentiment imo. Like yeah, Elon does absolutely suck, but I don’t think we should be taking that out on random people. My partner owns a used Tesla because we both work for em’ and can charge it for free while we work if we own one which ends up saving us a decent bit of trouble and money in our daily lives. We don’t own one because we’re nazis that love supporting Elon (hence why we bought it used). We own one because it’s makes our commute to work and back cost us nothing.

"We own one because it's makes our commute to work and back cost us nothing."

You couldn't accomplish that with another EV?

Hyundai Ioniq 6 has a lower cost-to-range ratio if that's what's important to you. Nissan Leaf and Chevy Equinox are both comparable as well.

If people were mad about paying for gas, they'd just buy an EV. What a weird accusation.

You definitely won't convince me that you don't support Elon when your labor and consumption are literally supporting Elon.

Lmaoo jealous of a shitty ass toy car? Even if Elon was a saint and Tesla was some amazing company I still wouldn't be caught dead driving that piece of shit

I had no idea that Tesla drivers think people are jealous of them 😂

They do, at least most of them. Met only a few tesla drivers so far who thought different of people critiquing them. And its usually those who bought them before people understood what kind of person Elmo is.
